Hey Intparent!
Great to hear that you've been a happy flutterbaby over the last 9 months.

No tips on getting teenagers to do the Riley Challenges - I think that they have to really be internally motivated for that to work, but I'll bet that you do plenty of whole group participation 'set the timer for 15 minutes and boogie the the main living area of the house'es, right?

I guess the tip is to stay positive, don't let the Martyr out, and keep praying while you wait. I think it will happen as they see the change in you and the house - but don't make me promise when. But honestly, if they notice that they miss FLYing at age 23,27, or 32 and they know they can find you and get the help they need, isn't that almost as good?

Here's Flylady's 'Babystep for Today'

You can do anything for 15 minutes,
Housework done incorrectly still blesses your family
You can�t organize clutter; you can only get rid of it.

I know you have others that you love. Use this page as a place to write them down when you see something that touches your heart.
